now first of all forgive me why do Ginger's get so much spit says the man with pubic hair actually saying I didn't really get much abuse of school people as used to call me Luke Ashley or at lucozade Oh Lucas Oh clever by clever Nick does anyone here who thinks they might be ginger what about you what you've done it ginger that's not that's nice to hear yeah that is the future right there navigate obviously we have to talk about Harry Potter and I'm you probably fed up to the back teeth with it we I don't know I mean it's been my whole life basically it's been 11 years it is 11 years and I've had children who'd been growing up that time so I've spent a lot of my time reading them here he fought the bedtime stories what on earth is it about I mean really basically we win in the end so does Michael Gambon obviously came here yeah bit older than you and I did ask him when he was sitting in that very chair do you understand it of course he was Dumbledore and he said well sort of but does he give the impression of knowing what he's doing on the set or um the performance is amazing he does get bit confused sometimes I think one question I had from my children if you don't mind my asking is d fancy Emily Watson in real life well they don't do that face that man just did that hmm but do you actually fancier in real life well I Swiss weird cuz I'd say Dutch had to kiss her on this last one cuz I'm our characters kind of get together yeah yeah and it's like a sister brother-sister kind of relationship we go you weren't nursing a semi No and so what does the future hold now that the whole big ten years of Potter's over I don't know it's a weird feeling to kind of suddenly come out something you've been the part of but most of your life I've dropped out of the films kind of in between like and hopefully I can kind of continue doing that well one of the things that was thinking of this I've been reading up on you obviously before you came on is that you could work with cars because they do seem to be a strong love for you yeah because what you actually own is let's think a range Rooney an ice-cream van and a hovercraft let's start with a Range Rover shall we that the Wayne Rover yeah colors that it's it's orange it's Briah ginger basically a ginger ginger car is it Eddie so that works well or well no I didn't even really think make that connection was kind of thinking apart I just thought it looked really cool I've got black wheels look it doesn't really cool so an orange range over and black wheels hey there we're fighting a lost cause they're bringing it back down to earth again ice cream van yeah I've had that for a while it's something I've always always wanted as a child it's kind of a dream really I said 74 Bedford is pink it's not the most practical car cause it's it's got one seat but it's basically a kitchen oh yes you do get people queuing up kind on the side of a road and then mildly surprised when they see who's actually sitting in it I didn't marry and then obviously I have to ask the hovercraft yeah I am a huge fan of hovercrafts because they they are I mean they are the most fun you can have with an engine I'm absolutely convinced of it yeah well I was told the first time I ever went on and I'm like you must have experienced this is if you actually see an obstacle if you can see it you will hit it at some point between seeing it and then could be an hour or so you're going doesn't - what you do is they're amazing they kind of you've got no control at all you have actually hit anything oh yeah and so are you a good driver well I like to think so I mean I actually did a bit of karting while John did you do yeah competitive karting war yeah with my brother so what did you think of our new reasonably priced car I quite liked it it was quite it was better than I thought yeah because I was interestingly we had them and I'm actually not joking we've had this from Kier the makers of the reasonably priced car to say that they're recalling the C apostrophe D man way they've identified that C apostrophe D models could suffer from insufficient brake force from the master cylinder what they're actually saying they're in long words is the brakes don't work did nobody tell you that no that didn't anybody come up with a line team told you that that car's been recalled no I didn't realise that if you remember right now Frank there's only 468 models that have been affected we don't know that it's ours yet it was possible anyone you didn't die I didn't die no you made it and who here would like to see Rupert's lap so there we go look at it a symphony in brown Oh looking determined not lost there no well done you remember to go left that's important so you're going neat and tidy yeah when these and tidy is the key really no no it won't go any faster so that really is as fast as it goes you see this is the important thing if you're not slow chances are you going not as slowly as you think that's cool nobody will wobble then into the Hammerhead you stay in the lines yes even lower on the lines it does understeer this did you notice yeah yeah I remember yeah oh you say you know what your Nana prefers oversteer I don't really understand though well it's this car when you turn the steering wheel it sort of pushes on ya now yes that's that was a muse of the line to that absolutely perfect that's understood my wheels turned right over but there we are look across the line come on youth where do you think you are on that obviously not the Wet Ones but we got there 145 nine is Peter Jones fastest men I don't think I've got the top but well mmm so just have a look on this if you see where you can hang on a minute it's like being back at school you got a b-minus no lonely so Rupert Grint you did it in one minute they're relieved to hear 45.5 is the fastest and now you bust that one that is and that is in we know that Peter Jones was quick in the old car right you know the dragon dragon man so we thought well that time we'll take some be he had by the way has just committed suicide obviously left here the other day saying well no one will be that in a hurry and it's actually taken precisely two weeks for his time to be beaten I don't think that's gonna get knocked off for a while Wow so that was a thank you so much for coming thank you for Buster
